Open beta kicks off for Fallen Empire: Legions

Bored? Like FPS games? You might want to head here and sign up for the open beta of Fallen Empires: Legions.

The game has been made by a group of folks who identify themselves GarageGames. Much of this team was at one time part of a previous game-making dynasty, known as Dynamix, that was a vertibale game-making powerhouse through most of '90s, often putting out three or more games a year. Much of the GarageGames team worked on Starseige: Tribes and Tribes 2. Some people might imagine, that if they owned the rights to the name, it is possible that Fallen Empires: Legions would be named Tribes 3. 

Perhaps you never played Tribes, so let me sum it up. Big maps. Two bases. FPS game with jetpacks and flying. That's pretty much all you need to know; those are the essentials.

Different classes include different specilizations in the following (standard FPS fare) weapons: sniper rifle, grenade launcher, rocket launcher, chain gun, and I believe: that's it.

The game was a whole bunch of fun back in the days of Tribes 2... but does the game still have legs? Check it out for yourselves and let us know. The game has been in development for a long time, so the open beta is probably in good shape.
